HOW TO ASTRAL TRAVEL - ASTRAL PROJECTION
Astral
projection is a form of out of body experience
that sometimes occurs during lucid dreaming during
deep meditation or at times of crisis. The soul moves
into an astral body (or "etheric double"),
which moves free of the physical body in a parallel
world known as the astral plane. Astral Travel
in the astral body is spoken about in many mystical texts and has more
recently been studied by scientists investigating
reports of people who have had a near death experience.

ASTRAL
TRAVEL CLAIMS
During an astral voyage, communication with other
astral projectors is claimed to be possible. Of interest
is the work of Robert Monroe who founded the Monroe
Institute and published several accounts of his experiences
of astral projection including "Far Journeys".
Robert Monroe developed a method he calls Hemisync
to induce mental states that are favourable for projection

ASTRAL
TRAVEL ATTACKS
Sometimes the astral traveller reports being attached
to his/her physical body by a silver umbilical cord.
Pets have been said to react in a frightened manner,
and some claim seeing an astrally projecting person's
spirit as a coloured beam or shot or light darting
around the room.

ASTRAL
TRAVEL & ASTRAL PROJECTION DREAMS
From Craig Hamilton-Parker's Book Psychic
Dreaming: Out-of-body dreams, in which you
"float" up and look down upon yourself or
upon another location, are a form of psychic dream.
Some psychics claim they visit other actual locations,
often ones that they've never seen. Travelling out
of the body is sometimes called Astral Projection.
Frederik van Eeden presented one of the first studies
of out of body dreams to the Society of Psychical
Research in 1913. Van Eeden had already presented
evidence for lucid dreams in which the dreamer becomes
conscious while the dream is taking place. He told
the society that his own lucid dreams were often preceded
for several nights by dreams of flying. Sometimes
these lucid dreams included apparent clairvoyantly
received information that could be verified later.
In other instances he believed he left his body.
In one instance while 'flying' he dreamed that he
would be robbed of a large sum of money, a predicted
event that was to take place soon afterwards. Of great
interest to Van Eeden was when he noted that sometimes
he would dream of lying on his stomach when in reality
he was lying in bed and on his back. If he allowed
himself to wake slowly he would experience the sensation
of slipping from his 'dream body' that was lying face
down into his actual sleeping body.
Depending upon the person, the appearance of the
'dream body' ranges from a gossamer-like form to an
exact replica of the physical body. Having the ability
to project consciousness can open up many interesting
opportunities to the dreamer. Some claim to be able
to travel to remote locations. They claim to be able
to walk the beaches of Hawaii, explore the ancient
pyramids of Egypt or even have a free ticket to the
moon.
Craig's
Astral Projection Experience
I have had many of these experiences myself but have
found in most instances that it is hard to maintain
consciousness for long periods of time. My own experience
is one of projecting my awareness rather than a dream
body. Nonetheless on occasions I have looked down
at my sleeping body from the ceiling and have sometimes
awoken with clear memories of having visited a remote
location. Many people report having these experiences
during puberty.
At first the experience of being without a body is
frightening if you have never heard about astral projection.
It is natural to assume that you are dead and panic
sets in. The result is usually a quick return to the
body. A quick return is sometimes accompanied by sensations
of a jolt to the physical body accompanied by a loud
band and a flash of brilliant light. Once the initial
fears are overcome astral travel become natural and
is not accompanied by any negative sensations.
